conflict into collaboration. Drawing from his own leadership journey, Dr. Stan Ward shares
how he had to overcome his tendency to avoid conflict—mistaking it for
peacemaking—only to realize that avoidance often creates lose-lose outcomes. Using the
metaphor of a road trip, Dr. Ward equips participants with practical tools to lead hard
conversations with clarity and confidence.
Learning Objectives
● Clarify the goal of a conflict conversation to stay focused and purposeful.
● Overcome common derailers like avoidance and aggression.
● Develop a simple, repeatable framework for handling conflict.
● Leverage two key sentences to build mutual understanding.
● Strengthen their confidence in leading high-stakes conversations.
The session is led by Dr. Stan Ward, a leadership coach, educator, and founder of Influence Coaching. With a
Ph.D. in Leadership Studies and 20+ years of experience, he helps leaders turn conflict
into collaboration.
